The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential benefits of an autogenous killed PRRS product when used in combination with Ingelvac PRRS vaccine to protect against PRRSV challenge.
Ingelvac PRRS MLV provided heterologous protection, whereas the use of a killed autogenous PRRS vaccine alone or in combination failed to provide protection or any added benefit.
